Draping (FSHN 1113)
Draping is the practice of creating patterns in three dimensions directly on the dress form. In this course, students translate between two and three dimensions, drape blocks/slopers and garments, and create paper patterns from their work. Students experience inherent fabric properties through practice and learn to drape on straight and bias grainlines.
